FIVE FRUITFUL PRACTICES We have committed to strengthening our life and mission together through a focus on five specific, Spirit-led practices: Radical Hospitality; Passionate Worship; Intentional Faith Development; Risk-Taking Mission and Service; and Extravagant Generosity . As we exercise these qualities of the Christian life together, we will grow personally and as a congregation in fulfilling the will of God: to live lives that are dedicated to Christ and committed to serving God.
